When I need to feel you near me
|
I stand in this quiet place
|
Where the silver light of countless stars
|
Falling on my face
|
Though they all shine so brightly
|
Somehow it comforts me to know
|
That some that burn the brightest
|
Died an eternity ago
|
|
Chorus
|
But your light still shines
|
It's one small star to guide me
|
And it helps me to hold back the dark
|
Your light's still shining in my heart
|
|
I'm learning how to live without you
|
And I never thought I could
|
And even how to smile again
|
I never thought I would
|
And I cherish your heart's memories
|
Cause they bring you back to life
|
Some caress me gently
|
And some cut me like a knife
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Can your soul be out there somewhere
|
Beyond the infinity of time
|
I guess you've found some answers now
|
I'll have to wait for mine
|
When my light joins with yours one day
|
We'll shine through time and space
|
And one day fall on a distant age
|
Upon some stranger's face
|
|
But your light still shines
|
It's one small star to guide me
|
And it helps me to hold back the dark
|
Your light's still shining in my heart
|
Your light's still shining in my heart
|
